Seasons of the Word
Reflections on the
Sunday Readings
Denis McBride C.Ss.R.

Code: 1485 Price: £6.95
ISBN: 9780852313725

“We all know that the word of God does not
work automatically: it has to be worked on,
opened up, wrestled with, prayed about.”
In this book, now in a new edition to celebrate twenty years since its first publication,
Denis McBride takes his readers through the full liturgical cycle of readings for
Sundays and feast days. His insightful reflections throw new light on familiar and
unfamiliar passages of scripture.
Wearing his scholarship lightly, Denis McBride uses his background in biblical
studies and psychology to open up the readings in a way that is accessible for all
readers. Sometimes humorous, sometimes serious, always thought-provoking and
informative, this book is a vital tool for preachers and for all those who want to
deepen their understanding of the word of God as it is found in our liturgy.
A CD-ROM is included, containing all the texts along with additional prayers and
introductions to the readings.

The Gospel of Luke

The Gospel of Mark

A modern classic, this book was
welcomed as bringing “a notable power
of popular exposition to bear on the
Gospel… the language is consistently
fresh and contemporary”.

Reflecting on Mark’s great story of
action, we follow the restless drama
of the narrative from its opening on
the banks of the river Jordan through
the dramatic passion narrative to the
empty tomb.
